Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 30, 2026

ים עכשיו helps users view Israeli beach information such as beach flags, waves, weather, air quality, jellyfish references, and official safety links.

Information We Collect

The app may use your location while the app is open to find the nearest beach. Location is used only for app functionality and is not used for advertising or tracking.

The app stores simple preferences on your device, such as favorite beaches, selected language, theme, notification preferences, and recent local flag confirmations.

Crowd Flag Confirmations

If you confirm whether a beach flag matches what you see, the current app build stores that report locally on your device. It is not attached to your name, phone number, email, or account.

Information We Do Not Collect

• Photos or videos
• Contacts
• Payment information
• Advertising identifiers
• Account registration details

Third-Party Data Sources

The app may show information from backend-connected sources such as weather, marine forecasts, IQAir AirVisual air quality, Meduzot reference links, and Home Front Command reference links.

Official emergency and safety instructions should always be checked through official government sources. ים עכשיו does not replace official instructions.

Tracking

We do not track users across apps or websites owned by other companies.
